EDWARDS, Maria, 52, passed away unexpectedly July 21, 2014. She was born in Chicago on January 20, 1962. Maria devoted her life to helping others.

In 2010, she moved to Sun City Center, where she spent her last six months courageously fighting her battle with cancer. She is predeceased by her father Joseph Mayer; survived by her mother Aloisia Mayer, younger sister Margie Moore, and three daughters.
